Tokyo, June 3, 2008 - NEC Corporation announced today that it has configured testing solutions for the construction and operation phases of IP networking in response to a growing demand for IP network architecture from telecom carriers. The solutions have been arranged into an integrated testing system.
The system consists of the five solutions (listed below), and classifies IP network construction into three phases: installation, network operation and SLA* , with each phase hosting a number of tests to confirm IP circuit connectivity, network quality and other network characteristics.
Testing required in the installation phase of IP network construction includes confirmation of connectivity and verification of voice/video communication quality, both at the time of equipment setup as well as connection to subscriber households. In addition to periodic testing, service testing and line quality assurance testing, the operation and maintenance phase requires testing to identify areas of failure in times of service interruption, as well as confirmation of service recovery. The tests are complex and highly technical, which has consequently increased the cost of network operation.
To address these issues, NEC is looking to streamline deployment and operation of IP networks and significantly reduce costs by delivering carefully crafted solutions that leverage group-wide technological capabilities and know-how. The new system applies NEC's proven technology and abundant experience in the field of IP network architecture, incorporating "NC1900-ST" software to verify the status of SIP communications and measure communication quality, as well as "MS3400 Series" software to manage network operations, monitor network quality and support failure analysis. NEC is actively promoting its solutions business to telecom carriers.
The features of each solution are outlined below.
Please refer to the attachment for a diagram outlining the solutions.
